No, they're not selling this as an "AI accelerator":

Here is the quote:

"The company says operators deploying 5G Advanced and future 6G networks increasingly rely on server CPUs for virtualized RAN and edge AI inference, as they do not want to re-architect their data centers in a bid to accommodate AI accelerators."

Edge AI usually means very small models that run fine on CPUs.

A very small model is going to be, what, 8GB? That'll easily blow through the caches. You're going to end up bottlenecked on DRAM either way.

So, I wonder if this is going to be any faster than the previous generation for edge AI.
